Australia and New Zealand are breathtaking destinations and after 47 trips to this destination I think of this area as my second home. Yearly visits allow me to continually search out the best places to stay and determine what changes, if any, should be made to enhance the quality of this outstanding tour.
Group Travel understands the importance of good hotels. I have hand picked first class hotels, chosen not only for their quality but their location. Our escorted group tour also includes many special outings… a Tram Car dinner in Melbourne giving you a fabulous city tour while enjoying a gourmet dinner with Australian wines in an Orient Express-like setting… in Cairns, visit the Great Barrier Reef and ride the nostalgic narrow gauge train to Kuranda, before enjoying the longest gondola ride in the world over an entire rain forest …
In Sydney tour the harbor on a lovely luncheon cruise … and in New Zealand take another beautiful luncheon cruise touring the spectacular Fjord land of Milford Sound … experience a one night stay on a New Zealand sheep ranch … have dinner on a mountain-top overlooking the beautiful city of Queenstown … take a 5-hour ride across the South Island of New Zealand … attend a traditional Maori Concert and Hang Dinner in Rotorua … and see the unusual Glow Worm Caves in Waitoma a delicious barbecue lunch at Roseland is only one more of our specially planned meals on this group tour.
I am often asked why our escorted South Pacific group tour does not include Alice Springs and Ayres Rock … two very well known and, in the case of Ayres Rock, visually spectacular destinations. I took a group their once and based in that experience have not included them again. Some travelers found the heat in the area oppressive … and everyone found the flies absolutely annoying. Over the years I have added other destinations that I feel are more significant and will greater enhance your South Pacific experience. If however you with to visit these sites, Group Travel will be pleased to arrange a pre tour option for you.
The escorted group tour would not be complete without visiting one of the exotic South Pacific islands. I have chosen Fiji and the beautiful Shangri La Fijian Resort where you will experience the friendliest people … and unbelievable sunsets! This property is located on its own island … and every room faces the ocean.
The price in the brochure is for the whole tour… sightseeing, entertainment, top hotels, all gratuities, coach and air transportation, most meals, Comprehensive Tour Package Insurance … and everything is in Canadian dollars. If you compare this Complete South Pacific package with other tour offerings, you will discover that the Group Tour is the best value in Canada. Our included features, accommodations, and itinerary make this trip unique.
I look forward to having you join me on one of our departures in 2009. You only live once, so why not take the tour of a lifetime? I know that you will never regret making this journey.
